Abstract

The aim of our current study is to explore the clinical implications of the responses of clinical psychology students on the validity scales of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2). To achieve this objective, we conducted a study on a sample of 20 male and female students specializing in clinical psychology, randomly selected from a statistical population of 419 students. We used the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2) as a research tool to collect data and information, which is one of the most widely used tools in the world. Our study employed a descriptive methodology that is applicable to our current research. After analyzing the obtained data, the following results were obtained: 1. There are four patterns identified, with the first pattern being the most prominent among the sample individuals, accounting for 55% of the participants. Individuals in this pattern exhibit a balance between acknowledging and denying social errors. However, when it comes to faking, most individuals in this pattern tend to fake towards a more negative direction, indicating a desire to appear troubled. 2. Regarding the second pattern, it appeared in four cases among the sample individuals, representing a percentage of 0.2%, these individuals are characterized by acknowledging their limited sources in dealing with problems. In terms of faking in this pattern, we noticed one case where individuals fake towards a more positive direction to appear socially desirable. 3. The third pattern appeared in only one case, representing a percentage of 0.5% of the study cases. It is characterized as an ascending pattern, with a tendency towards appropriate balance, self-disclosure, and protection. Individuals in this pattern possess sufficient personal resources. 4. The fourth pattern includes four cases from the study sample, representing a percentage of 0.2% of the study cases. This pattern is considered the descending pattern, characterized by avoiding a certain level of naivety and lack of psychological insight into oneself. These individuals try to appear in a positive light.
